As we spend the last hours of 2012, I ponder upon how I spent my 2012, and my resolutions and plans for 2013.

How has 2012 treated you? For me, it has been a lot better than 2011, thank goodness! Let's hope it keeps getting better ! :) My biggest lesson learnt in 2012 is forgiveness, and to let the people who love me back into my life, albeit in small baby steps.

I am really bad at fulfilling my New Year's Resolutions. Come end of January, I've usually forgotten what they even were. However, resolutions give hope - they make me at least look forward to a positive start, or to make a positive change. What are your resolutions?

I hope to stop procrastinating - to do what can be done today done, and not wait for tomorrow. I hope to start French classes with my best friends.I hope to improve my relationships with my loved ones because although I love them, I never have enough time for them.I hope for a better EDIT.

So as we bid a final Au Revoir, and sing "Auld Lang Syne" to 2012, let's forget the negative things that happened in the year, let's forgive the people who forgot to show kindness; and be hopeful and look forward to a new beginning tomorrow.

After 10 years of watching Les Miserables in the theatre in London, I finally really understood the story of Les Miserables. The first time I watched it, I was in boarding school, tired and did not understand much apart from Eponine dying and something about the French Revolution.

The movie is a MUST WATCH - Anne Hathaway was beyond incredible; and the story of Les Mis has so many layers to ponder upon. It's a sad gritty movie, but it screams freedom and rightousness, honesty and love. I hope that "On my own", I would sing a more positive "I dreamed a dream" song of my own.

Loving my coat that I got from Korea! My friends said I would only wear it twice but it is already my second day wearing it!! For only HKD680, this coat is such a bargain and will definitely be worn more than twice!!

With the temperature suddenly dropping today, it is starting to feel a little bit more like Christmas! It was the perfect day to celebrate Christmas with my London group of friends - I hope that we will always have our annual Secret Santa and X'mas gatherings, and that it will always feel like as if we were back in London whenever we meet! While it was so cold outside, I felt super warm just being with you guys. I love you all so much!!! :)

Meet Diane - a friend who just got married. Don't you think she is just the most beautiful bride??! PLUS, she was wearing Valentino Wedding gowns (super jealous!).

I have been to a number of weddings in the past year, and yet, everytime I watch the newly weds say their "I do's", I get super emotional. There is something special about commiting your life to someone who would be your partner for life. I wish Diane and Vincent a happy new beginning! :)
